Went fishing with my brother and his wife Monday and Tuesday. He bagged this one Tuesday morning. We came home limited out. Only one Chinook. Mark

Good to see a nice fish, Oregon side or Washington side? What were you guys utilizing for Silvers?  I am heading Sat for fun and I don't do Ocean either...  Reason I want to sell my boat and get an ocean boat.

Nice king!  I'm headed there on Saturday.  My concern is the possibility of 15+ knot winds and swell to 9 feet at the mouth.

URB= Upper River Bright.

They are Fall kings that go WAY into the upper stretches of the Columbia river. Yummy fish!!!

Sat
N wind 10 to 15 kt with gusts to 20 kt. Wind waves 3 ft. NW swell 6 ft at 11 seconds... building to 8 ft in the afternoon. Patchy fog in the morning.

I'm gonna wait until Sunday for it to flatten out a bit.  I don't mind it rough if I'm alone but I am taking my kids.  The bridge is only a couple of miles from the mouth and will be just as lumpy.  I like to enjoy my fishing time and not spend it worrying about my crew, boat and mailny the other tards who don't know how to navigate in rough weather.
